Eco store FourState opens in Windsor

-

A new eco store has opened in the town to add to its collection of shops across the Thames Valley.

FourState welcomed customers in St Leonard’s Road on April 12 to provide Windsor shoppers with sustainabl­e items for the home.

Stores in Marlow and Henley have already opened and Windsor was the town that FourState wanted to set up in next, says coowner Patrick Brown.

“We have had such a lovely welcome,” he said. “We looked at a few towns, Windsor was where we really wanted. It has been really positive.”

Patrick said that the shop layout is designed in the form of a house, to give people the chance to see items where they would normally be used in the home.

The business is also carrying on its popular FourState points scheme, which is where customers gain loyalty points with purchases which can then go towards helping the planet.

“That is our priority going forward, to get that growing,” Patrick said.

“Every customer that walks in should leave with something, whether that is

a product, knowledge, or even just having a good experience.”

During the lockdowns, FourState has operated a click and collect service using electric vans, while also supporting some elderly customers without access to the internet.

The restrictio­ns also helped the business to spruce up its website and adapt to the new way of life, Patrick added. FourState will be open Monday to Saturday 9.30am-5.30pm, and Sunday 11am-4pm.
